6. Behavior Assemblies will take place on the schedule listed above. Please be in the gym and seated so we can begin promptly. Classes will not be called.

7. Due to yesterday's rain we did not hold our Fire Drill. We will hold off until Thursday since we have all the Kindergarten students and their parents at K-screening today.

8. Social Committee does a lot of wonderful work here at Speas. They represent all of us in family emergencies, family celebrations, and faculty activities. This of course costs money. Dues are now due. Membership is $25 payable to Ms. Johnson.

9. Few things are harder to put up with than the annoyance of a good example.
Mark Twain (1835 - 1910), Pudd'nhead Wilson (1894)

They say that God is everywhere, and yet we always think of Him as somewhat of a recluse.
Emily Dickinson (1830 - 1886)


Man is a clever animal who behaves like an imbecile.
Albert Schweitzer (1875 - 1965)

Ever heard Victoria's REAL secret? Too much support hurts.

Please make ALL checks for Social Dues to Speas School, not Karen Johnson. She is collecting the money, but not cashing the checks.
Thank you for your support.

Please remember to include the AR training on Thursday afternoon for teachers. It would be beneficial to the assistants who adminster tests quite often but they are leaving early that day. Teachers are also asked to stay after the session to enroll their class into STAR. Thanks,
Cathy
